Looks like about 3 or 4 doors down from current Wo Hop restaurant (if you're a cop, fireman or fat guy like me, you'll know)

 

Soy Kee, Sing Lee, Wing Tong

The steeple seen in the top right is still there. The names on the restaraunts have changed. No more Soy Kee or Sing Lee, or Port Arthur. Wing Tong anyone?

Well, on Google Street View you can see a couple of these buildings. I think the Google driver was doing about 50mph though.
